Welcome to the forum
Interesting going for a smoothed look but keeping the square bumpers!
Stick up a thread for the car (and also the bike!) when you get a chance

134p but only coz its £200 off a mate with ecu, loom and box and cant afford a 180 at the mo, will pull better than my 1.6 8v anyway

That's interesting about the 206 engine. I've been waiting to see someone out one in a 306,though it it's a bit of a shame it's not the (not quite) 180bhp version

very true, wanted the 180 206 gti engine but for a 80,000miles 134 gti engine thats £200 its not badly priced!!! and theres always a bit of possible tuning!!
